Rudy Giuliani is headlining his second New York Republican fundraiser in two weeks as a poll shows he would beat Democratic incumbent Gov. David Paterson in an election.
Although many New York Republicans are pushing the former New York City mayor to consider a run for governor in 2010, Giuliani hasn't committed.
On Monday he was in Albany for the annual Lincoln-Reagan Day Dinner. Last week he was the big draw at the state Republican committee's annual dinner. Both have been must-attend events for past GOP governors.
A Siena College poll on Monday finds Giuliani would beat Paterson 56% to 29% in a matchup.
The latest Siena poll surveyed 682 registered voters from Monday through Wednesday last week. It has margin of error of nearly 4%age points.
